Rough calculation length x height x width in metres

eg: 1m x .5m x .2m = 100L
Weekdays - Prado GXL D4D with some stuff

Put a 5lt tin of fuel in the back and just let the bugger run out. Then poor the 5lt in and goto the servo in fill it up. I have done this a couple of times. Mainly after the long range tank went in. Bloody guage was way out to what it was before hand.
Usually only needs the system primed to the fuel filter and then just battery crank it from there.
